Re: Batam Info / Interest / Help Thread
2016 is almost coming to an end...and 2017 is on its way. And its always good to be prepared.
Indonesia Public Holiday 2017 Reference to the previous 2016 Indonesia public holiday : https://thesbf.shop/showpost.p...postcount=1127 Some of the major holiday i am constantly watching out on while planning my trip to Batam : 1. CNY 2017 - its one of the key reason why i am in Batam for. 2. Ramadan month and Hari Raya Puasa (below link is my collected info on Ramadan) https://thesbf.shop/showpost.p...postcount=2228 3. 1st of May's Labour Day - usually there will be demonstration/rally outside or around Batam Center area. 4. 17th August's Indonesia's Independence Day - usually there will also be demonstration/rally outside or around Batam Center area. 5. Indonesia Election Day ,National and Religious event. While constantly keeping a look out on Indonesia public holiday,i am also looking out at Sillypore and Malaysia public holiday too. I can never be too prepared and being well prepare do not equates to zero hiccups in my trips. Just sharing. (next year around this time,i may have to look back at what i post here today)

Hope it's just a hoax. Base on Horizon & Batamfast websites,no increase. But not sure if there'll be an increase for Batamfast & Sindo ferry promo disc itself. |

Re: Batam Info / Interest / Help Thread
Really curious why someone like to emphasize so many times that he don,t know bahasa (malay).
1 time 2 times never mind. But so many times don,t seem right at all. Can understand until 1 - satu 2 - dua 3 - tiga 4 - empat 5 - lima but 678910 still don,t know. Hahahha. Really funny. Actually no need to emphasize so many times. Only got 1 reason. Pretend to be a Pig, to eat the Tiger. |

Re: Batam Info / Interest / Help Thread
I very free now. Don,t say i anyhow say hor. So how many don,t know bahasa do you all like to hear?
1..At Utama area,very rare i will need to pay until 200k for hj and 300k (and/or more) for fj too. And i dont speak Indo. I guess not being able to speak bahasa indo can become an added advantage in this case 2...10k to 20k is the usual pricing for ojek (depend on distance and how you wish to travel) if i move around solo. And i dont know bahasa too,yet i can still bargain. 3..Should be quite easy for me since i truly do not understand bahasa. 4..Not a problem at all. I dont have an Indo girl to talk to from Sillypore to Batam,hence my bahasa relatively remain quite stagnant over the last 2 years. 5..Hehehe..language should not be a barrier (tho i must say it is good to know their language) becos to date,i still dont speak bahasa too. 27-04-2016, 11:36 AM 6.. (affecting my negotiation with other pharmacie when i talk to them,remember i dont speak bahasa) 7..Bargaining conversation time,all in less than 3 mins and with all smile since i dont understand bahasa,hehehe... 8..Cant speak bahasa indo? Thats just like me,use google translate then,hehehe..i have been using it since day 1 of my trip and i am still rather illiterate with Bahasa 9..Nothing to fear for season Batam cheongsters of course,but it can be a stumbling block for most Batam newbie who are like me who dont understand Bahasa Indo 10.At Utama area,very rare i will need to pay until 200k for hj and 300k (and/or more) for fj too. And i dont speak Indo. I guess not being able to speak bahasa indo can become an added advantage in this case 11..10 out of 10 bros who join me in my trips know well I couldnt communicate in bahasa at all,hehehe 12...Hehehe...i am neither of it. Meaning,not old bird,dont speak bahasa nor look like a local 13..I have to resort to using the point to point "trickery" to get the below 20k rupiah as a foreigner who speaks no malay nor Bahasa Indo. 14..Due to our lack of understanding on Bahasa Indo language,we ordered like we used to in Sillypore,we ask for 3 Fried Bananas....and they turn out to be 3 plates of this 15..He speaks in bahasa,i didnt understand. 16..I google translated the words on the pictured banner before I asked my question above,hehehe... (sorry,not an indo bahasa literate person and I relied on google translate a lot) 17..And by far,i have send 2 girls back in my 2.5 years time in Batam,hehehe...I was about 4 to 5 months old in Batam that time when I send my 1st booking girl packing and to-date I don't even speak bahasa nor malay, 18..Maybe you can help me check it out if there are more reason/s behind it becos as you know,i don't speak bahasa, 19..Sadly,its not for me becos i dont understand bahasa 20.Precaution is always better than cure,hence its written on the newbie guide. Remember,i wrote the guide when i 1st visit Batam,with zero experience and do not speak Malay or any Bahasa indo. |

Re: Batam Info / Interest / Help Thread
The Demonstation only because the Batam Authority goverment giving high rental price , it's not racist or anything , Nagoya Hill area will be safe.
If any of you guys want to go to Batam , go to HarbourBay using Horizon , will be much safer (and faster too , 45 mins) from what i read its basicly they increase the land tax or something like that a hundred fold of last year price only. And About the Local burn the chinese House is Batam is TRUE , but not racist problem , The Developer of The Houses using cheat way to get the land and build the Houses and SELL them . The local owner of the lands burn the houses couse of the developer but the houses alrd bought by chinese local !!! so basicly it still safe Last edited by Xhuuya; 14-11-2016 at 02:38 PM. |
